Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1895) · From Hymns of the Samaveda (1895)
1. These rapid Soma-drops have been poured through the purifying sieve.
To bring us all felicities.
2. Dispelling manifold mishap, giving the courser's progeny,
Yea, and the warrior steed's, success.
3. Bringing prosperity to kine, they pour perpetual strengthening food
On us for noble eulogy.
